Manage Worklogs for Tasks Integrated with CA Clarity PPM

You can manage worklogs for tasks that integrate with CA Clarity PPM. You can perform the following tasks:

• Log time on tasks. Verify that you are a member of the product to which the task belongs.
• Log time on tasks for other users. Verify the following information:
  • You are an administration user.
  • The user for which you are logging time is a resource in the CA Clarity PPM project team.
• Delete your worklog from a task. Complete one of the following actions to delete a worklog:
  • If the associated timesheet in CA Clarity PPM is currently open, delete the worklog in CA Clarity Agile. The Timesheet Sync job automatically updates the CA Clarity PPM timesheet.
  • If the associated timesheet in CA Clarity PPM is already submitted, delete the worklog in CA Clarity Agile and create a timesheet adjustment in CA Clarity PPM.

    See the CA Clarity Basics User Guide for more information.

• To allow resources to log time on integrated tasks in CA Clarity Agile, add the resources as team members on the CA Clarity PPM project.

Note: If you log time in CA Clarity Agile, wait for the Timesheet Sync job to run before submitting the timesheet in CA Clarity PPM. The job updates the timesheet with the latest logged hours and tasks from CA Clarity Agile. To schedule this job to run more often at the end of week, contact your CA Clarity PPM administrator.

Orphaned Worklogs

If you delete a resource from a project in CA Clarity PPM before worklogs are posted for that resource, the worklogs become orphaned. The resource does not exist against which the corresponding worklogs can be posted.

In this situation, the project manager is notified through automated email to take one of the following actions:

• Delete the worklog in CA Clarity Agile.
• Add the resource back to the CA Clarity PPM project team so that the time can be logged.
